   Disappointing and unwelcoming first experience. We weren’t greeted by staff and stood at the front for a bit before getting someone behind the bar to help with our booking. The two of us were seated at a table for 10 in a separate glass room alone with a sign that said the room was closed, and chairs were stacked up along the wall. Despite there being many open tables, we were told they were all booked. We first thought we may be underdressed and seated away from everyone due to that, but then noticed there were men wearing thongs, tshirts, tank tops, swim trunks, and one had a beach towel around his neck so that didn’t appear to be the reason. From the outside it seemed like a nice atmosphere and view which is why we booked, but we didn’t expect to be seated in a quiet room alone, separate from the dining room, with only a view of people smoking in the alley. The food quality was nice, but overall bland. No one was ever seated in the room with us. When we left, there were still tables available in the dining room. Overall a very unwelcoming and confusing experience. Still left wondering why we weren’t seated in the dining room with the other patrons. The only friendly staff was a lovely man at the front desk before we entered the restaurant.

   The meals were overpriced, compared to other years that I have attended Sculpture By The Sea with my group of seniors. My "meal" for $39 was 12 prawns with a tablespoon of cabbage. Previous years offered a seniors menu. I remember a fabulous lamb shank on mash potato for $15.

   The whole table was not impressed. The food cost a lot but the quality was poor making it not value for the money. The Salad was not fresh and not edible. The chips were barely cooked and soggy. The fish tasted pretty good as was the sauce on the parmigiana. The view is fantastic and most of the staff were pleasant. I would not be visiting this establishment again unless the food were to improve.

   Food is typical pub fare, no complaints it was okay. Incredibly busy, but not to long a wait to order at the bar and at the bistro for food. Friendly staff. Magnificent views at sunset and yes was with going there.

   The staff are very friendly but the wait time for a drink from the bar was longer than you'd want

   We have been coming here for years but place just gets worse with each visit. This time the table we reserved was dirty, there were queues 8 people long for drinks with only one server even though there was another staff member behind the bar who chose not to serve. Food average and not cheap. $41 steaks pretty average. We won't be coming back in a hurry and the only reason would be for the view.

    Very mid experience including food but it was a busy, sunny Sunday so it was very busy and extremely crowded.
